[Ccsf-campus-staff] help introduce college students to open source on Saturday, March 22nd

[Shauna Gordon-McKeon]

Hi,


This is Shauna Gordon-McKeon of OpenHatch <http://openhatch.org/>.  We're
helping to run an event introducing students to free/open source software
on Saturday, March 22nd at the City College of San Francisco. I was
wondering if you would be interested in helping out!

We're looking for people to help mentor attendees as they learn how to
contribute to open source projects.  Instructors with a variety of
backgrounds are welcome: while it's great if you have tons of experience
using git and setting up development environments, we're also looking for
people who've been involved with open source as non-programmers, who know a
bit about picking bugs and submitting patches, or who just like to talk
about their experiences with open source.

The event runs from 9:30am-6pm, with coffee, bagels and socializing for a
half hour beforehand.  (Staff won't need to show up at 9:00 sharp, but
should be there by quarter of ten if possible.) We're also fine with
mentors who can only come for part of the day, though we encourage you to
come for the full day if you can.


You can find out more about the event here:

If any of this sounds appealing to you, and you're available on the 22nd, email
us back at ccsf-campus-staff at lists.openhatch.org to coordinate.  And feel
free to pass this along to others in the area who you think might be
interested.

Thanks!
- Shauna
